Hi Lindsay,

I appreciate your reply. It's very early days, but we would like to batch receive shipments in Evergreen instead of searching for and receiving each line item individually.

Thanks!
Libby

Hi Libby,

We also do not use ASN, so I'm just thinking out loud here...

ASN data can be transmitted via EDI, and Evergreen uses EDI, so it might be configurable. I'm kind of assuming that you are specifically talking about including the shipping data in the ACQ workflow. I'm not sure if EDI messages can be delinked from ACQ.

Do you have a vendor that offers ASN documentation?

It's an interesting idea to have more specific shipping info for orders.

I sent a similar question to the Acquisitions and Cataloging lists a while ago and did not receive an answer. Does your library system use Advanced shipping notice (ASN) or something similar to receive items ordered in Evergreen? It is usually sent in an electronic format. An ASN can provide a list of all of the barcoded ID numbers of the shipping units and the contents of each.

Thanks again!
